Nash

Nash Prescription Glasses

Round glasses have a quiet, clever charm that never really goes out of style. The Nash is a unisex full-rim metal round frame, sized 49-21-145, in Brown Tort & Gold or Gold & Brown Tort. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It belongs to the Walter & Herbert collection.

Brown Tort & Gold or Gold & Brown Tort?

Brown Tort & Gold. Brown Tort & Gold mixes brown tort and gold. It suits warm and olive skin tones beautifully.

Gold & Brown Tort. Gold & Brown Tort mixes gold and brown tort. It gives a polished, classic finish that never looks loud.

If you are stuck between two, choose the one closest to the colours you wear most. You can always add a second pair later.

Design details

Round frames soften angular features, so they are a great match for square and heart-shaped faces. Metal lets the frame stay slim and light while keeping its shape.

If you want a frame you can put on in the morning and forget about, the Nash is a strong choice. Thinking of a second pair? The Nash works well as a backup.

How to wear it

It works with workwear and weekend clothes alike, which is exactly what you want from an everyday frame.

Size and fit

With 49mm lenses, this is a compact frame that suits smaller faces. The 21mm bridge is wider than average, which suits a broader nose bridge. The 145mm arms are on the longer side, which suits larger heads. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 119mm.

The easiest way to check is against glasses you already love. Most frames show their size inside the arm; if yours are close to these, you are in safe territory.

Lens options for the Nash

Pick the lenses that match your prescription:

• Single vision: the same prescription from edge to edge.
• Bifocal: distance at the top and a reading segment at the bottom.
• Varifocal: a smooth change from distance to reading, with no line.
• Ready readers: a fixed magnification for books, phones and screens.

Want lighter lenses? A high-index lens is thinner than standard plastic. Pair it with an anti-reflective coating for less glare when you drive after dark.

Ordering online is simple

You need a valid prescription from your optician and your pupillary distance (PD), the distance between your pupils. Many opticians include your PD on the prescription; if yours does not, just ask for it. Choose your colour, pick your lens type, enter your details and add any lens upgrades. If you are unsure about size, compare the measurements above with a pair you already wear.
